About this map

The salt marshes and industrial landings of the East Bay shoreline define this 1947 study, capturing a period of transition for southern Alameda County. Industry is heavily represented by the Sugar Refinery at Alvarado and multiple Salt Refinery sites along the San Francisco Bay margin. The landscape is a mix of reclaimed marshland and agricultural tracts, notably the Patterson Ranch and the historical Potrero de los Cerritos land grant area.
